Asteroid Field mod for Aground

Asteroid fields have been discovered in multiple known systems!
Initial scans show them to contain Coal, Focus Gems, Gold, Titanium, Uranium, Spirit Gems, and the occasional treasure of Exotic Matter or AI cores! Many ships have crashed here, and their remains can be found scattered throughout some fields.

Features:

Three asteroid fields, with over 20 different biomes that can generate! Due to their ever-shifting natures, the fields are never the same twice!

Unoiks Field:

Scattered with debris, hostile fields full of resources await you!
Stories of a lost research vessel have been heard... Can you find out what happened to the crew?
The mechanic has detected space pirates and asked you to defeat them in exchange for some powerful new tech!
Some friendly NPC space miners have some tasks for you in return for a new mining tool!
Plus many other biomes full of resources!

Sol Field:

Reskins of Unoiks biomes, with more enemies!
Great source of AI cores

UAMT-1 Field:

Contains high-risk, high-reward fields

In The Future:

~~This mod is mostly complete, but more content is still planned and will be added sometime in the future~~
We are happy to add just about anything. If you have ideas contact us through the comments or on the UAMT Discord!
When the next update to the main game is released, a new version of this mod will as well!

Most of the code and art is by Airom, while the haxe is written by gASK. Various artwork by ChesireX42, ᴬᴬᴿᴼᴻᴺᴼᴿᴲᴸᴸ, and VorTechnix.

I can't find the friendly NPC space miners. Must I do something else first? I have looked in the home system, the lost spaceship and the UAMT system, they are nowhere.

You have to look in the home system, but there is only about a one in twenty-five chance of finding them

I was able to kill all the pirates from the Mechanic's quest (22/5), but she doesn't let me finish the quest. What should I do?

Airom @airom

that bug should be fixed, the quest completion is tied to the asteroids area so it should autocomplete

I got the quest to find the space pirates from the mechanic, but I can't find them, though I destroyed all of the space drones and searched the stranded spaceship and the UAMT system asteroid field. Could anyone help?

Just keep searching, for now. In the next release (should be today maybe tomorrow), biome generation will be forced if you have quests to find a certain biome.

Have you visited the field yet? She should give it after you come back from your first visit.
